Are you ready to distribute bloody vengeance on the abominable orcs who originate from the pits of Middle-earth? Good, so are we.
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor arrives for the PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, and PS3 in SA on 3 October 2014.
The game sees you take control of a ranger named Tailon who is seeking revenge on those who killed his family. Oh, and those who killed him (he has been brought back to life by the spirit of vengeance).
The game’s developers have promised a “truly next-gen” experience, and from what we have seen so far, this game is looking quite tidy.
Here’s how much it will set you back.
